As some here know, I worked in weather for quite a few years - I'm now in another role that is also public-service oriented, so, it's all work for the public good, and, not profit-oriented (though we do get paid for what we do)...

No, I did not say that - but, those who work without regard for others, who walk on the backs of others to fatten their wallets, are in danger of going there - in the end, that is only for God to judge, since, that is what the Bible teaches, and also warns that that is the danger of living that kind of life...

This is neither an economics board nor a religion board.
